I don’t think it makes much sense to judge software by whether it is Turing complete because otherwise that would make Minecraft a programming language
So are you deprecating the term "Turing Complete"? Mighty bold move there. And on that same note, have you seen the stuff being done in Minecraft? It is quite up for debate whether it is a programming language.
> So are you deprecating the term "Turing Complete"?
No. It’s still an interesting yard stick. It just doesn’t describe programming languages in full. For example, and someone counterintuitively, it is actually possible to design a programming language that isn’t Turing complete. Some esoteric functional languages do actually fall into that category. But generally programming languages would be a subset of Turing complete software.

I have, hence why I cited it as an example.

One could debate anything but it doesn’t mean the argument is made in good faith.
Minecraft is a game. I’m happy to even extend the definition and say it’s supports some visual programming mechanics. But that doesn’t mean it is a programming language.
Just because something has 4 legs and a tail, it doesn’t automatically mean it is a dog.
